Q. How do I turn on auto-tracking of quests?

A - Look in the options for the game itself, not QuestGuru. Under Objectives there are options to set when to track quests. QuestGuru does not duplicate these settings in its own options as it could become problematic and it is not necessary to duplicate options already available.

Q. Where can I find a version compatible with WoW patch x?

A. QuestGuru is supported for the current Expansion and Patch level running on the live servers. PTR versions may be supported as Alpha or Beta releases, but I offer no guarantee.

**New**SOUND OPTIONS:
Default sound set is now the old QuestGuru set (as requested by many) /qgs set <soundsetname>
Sets the sound set and plays its quest completion sound
/qgs set
Lists the known sound set names
/qgs test <quest or objective or part>
Plays the current 'quest', 'objective' or 'part' completion sound
/qgs message <objectives or completion or none>
Sets verbosity of message in the chat log to 'objectives', 'completion' or 'none'(corrected text from messages to message for the command /qgs message )

QuestGuru ChangeLog
===================

Version 2.3.12
---------------
TOC update to 60200

Version 2.3.11
---------------
Defult sound set is the original QuestGuru set from the past. /QGS for changes

Version 2.3.02-60000
-------------
Found corruption in zip file, fixed and uploaded tested and working copy

Version 2.3.01-60000
-------------
Massive rework of the QuestGuru code. Right now the tracker is not working :(

Version 2.2.18-50400
-------------
QuestGuru
(no changes)
QuestGuru_Tracker
* Normalizing the version numbers between QuestGuru & QuestGuru_Tracker to the same value. This will be the main change log henceforth.
* fix Achievement to ignore update events that happen during portals (between leaving and entering world events)
The update event would fire, but Blizzard was reporting no achievements during that time so the QGT would
"UnTrack" the Achievements and so there would be none when the display tried to update (and therefore currLine was zero and j was nil)
* Look at the oldChangeLog in QuestGuru_Tracker for older updates to the tracker

Version 2.2.17-50400 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Changing the Version number so Curse will see that it's different

Version 1.5.16-50400 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* fix QGT_Achievement.lua to handle Blizzard not returning an integer value on the slider

Version 2.2.14-50300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.15-50300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* TOC change for patch 5.3
* Fixed a problem in QGT_Achievements that caused the Tracker to fail (Tracker)
* Big thanks to CMTitan who provided code to handle Scenarios that came out with MoP (Tracker)

Version 2.2.13-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Added a new sound option to announce (Thank you Drizt)
* Added a snippet of code to fix a rare QuestLog layout problem. Drizt ran into this again in MoP & kindly shared his fix for the issue.
* Fixed a few more places where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.
* Changed the Debug message for the objectives not returning data to be sensitive to the debug setting.

Version 1.5.14-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Fixed another place where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.

Version 2.2.12-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Blizzard API GetQuestLogLeaderBoard is failing to return information for the identified objective & quest on some quests.
I changed the code to look for no information return and simply bypass processing for that objective after dumping some info into the chatlog.
I've added a slashcommand to invoke the routine at will: "/qg testui1"
For me, it's failing on "Shadow Wardens" and perhaps that's because the world tree marks are currency, not "items".
If the quest is an event quest (get 150 marks) then the type of quest should be event and the numObjectives should be zero.

Version 2.2.11-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Error being reported by some @ line 410 of QuestGuru.lua. Added some diagnostic code when text == nil

Version 1.5.13-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Fixed a problem with the Achievement Tracking

Version 2.2.9-50001 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.12-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Both - Updated several items for compatability with Mists of Panderia (Patch 5.0.x)

Version 2.2.7-40300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.10-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Latest revision of the Russian localization now incorporated. Thank you again StingerSoft!
* Removed some unused code. Frame "QG_QuestLogTitleMenu"
* Fixed the SetBindings problem that would cause all bindings to occassionally get lost.

Version 2.2.6-40300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.9-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Made several localization changes. Enabled $substitution variables in announcer to be localized as well.
* Incorporated a brand new localization for Chinese(zhCN). Credit to Honooon with many thanks.
* Incorporated an updated localization for Russian(ruRU). Credit to StingerSoft with many thanks also.
* Updated all of the localizations (even the new ones) to synchronize variable names
* I based the updates upon the default (American) localization file.
* I removed variables that were no longer in the base localization file (most moved to the QuestGuru_Tracer localization)
* and added missing variables (in American)
* We now have localizations for German, French, Russian, and Chinese (zhCN & zhTW).
* I would really appreciate it if speakers of those languages sent me updates to them.
* There are some new variables in the localizations that need translation!

Version 2.2.4a-40300

* MrObrien has asked that somebody pickup and work on the QuestGuru so I will try and do some updates as I can't play without this mod.

Version 2.0 Beta 1
------------------

* QuestGuru is now a modification of the built-in quest log, rather than a replacement
* History is no longer stored on your computer but is retrieved from the server instead
* Removed some features that were causing problems and slimmed down the addon to reduce memory usage
* Upgraded to ChatThrottleLib v21

I'm getting an error when opening and closing the minimap: "QuestGuru_Tracker has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI. You can disable this addon and reload the UI."

This is the Blizzard Bug. If you have a bug-grabber / swatter type error catcher you can see more information. As reported below, random AddOns will be blamed for a taint. And it just isn't true. Please read below for my grousings and follow the links for more information.

If you feel this is a different bug, please post an error log from a bug-grabber / swatter AddOn. Make sure you have LUA errors showing (Interface options, help section).

Not had much time to test as i'm off to work but looks like you've cracked it Gregity.
Quickly tried 5 or 6 portals & i got no errors show up & everything stayed tracked & worked fine after using them.

Just got the latest version but alas i still get the error 100% of the time using a portal. Tried multiple portals but got the error again & again. I think its the same error but i'll post it again in case its different.
Could my actual game client cause this as i could always do a fresh reinstall. I also play EU, could it be region related? Just seems odd i get it 100% of the time but most people dont seems to have any problems.

I found a problem in the QGT_Achievement and was able to fix that problem. I hope it's the fix to the Achievement error that others have been reporting.

The problem I found is related to patch 5.4 and apparently Blizz is no longer treating the SetValueStep(1) as it did before. Since patch 5.4, GetValue from the slider will give a value not constrained by the value in SetValueStep (one in my case) and so fractional values will be returned.

This will cause untold havoc in the AddOn because the "j" variable is used to build the name of a global variable and it must be an integer, not something like 0.127485.

Anyway, I instituted my own rounding to round to an integer and the "j" value is now correct.

As I still don't get the error on login or in portal, I don't know if this is the same error. However the error reports indicate the same area and I can see how the problem could be the same root issue.

It appears that the file "QuestGuru.lua" was omitted from the most recent update. I assume this was an accident. If you manually installed the new version, you probably didn't notice. If you installed through the Curse client, though, it removed the old file.

Until this is fixed, you can download the previous version and either use it or just copy the QuestGuru.lua file into WoW\Interface\AddOns\QuestGuru\

How does one go about doing that?

Shouldn't be necessary anymore, as the most recent version on Curse has the missing file. But, to do this you would just download the .zip manually, instead of downloading through the curst client. Then, you open the zip file, find QuestGuru.lua, and copy into your WoW installation folder under the path above. Like I said, though, you shouldn't have to do this anymore.

One thing I noticed, though, is that the .toc for the last uploaded version still shows 2.2.16-50400, and not 2.2.16-50400b which is the current version on Curse. This may be causing the Curse client not to notice that there is an update...or it might not. On both my computer and on my wife's computer, the Curse client did not notice that there was an update after you re-uploaded, and I had to force an update. I thought maybe it was just because of the interim fix I applied on my own computer, but my wife never did that and had the same update behavior. My only guess was that the .toc showed the same version number, but who knows...could be something else.

Hi there, the on screen quest updates seem to have stopped working, ie 1 of 5 for X quest. these used to show in the raid warning area.
not sure if its related but having similar issues with a titan addon also not showing th warnings, maybe wow Changed something?
